But - What laughter never left our lips since about, oohh, 1978 - the last proper comedy show on TV that I could trace. Well, a couple since then, but only a couple.

Emotional Art.
dusk arising said:

Yes, the artist/songwriter/poet gives us the materials arranged in a way that we use our life experience to create a meaningful interpretation, a picture if you will. I am learning to do this myself using just enough information to tease my reader into the desired frame of picture making mind.

Yesterday I commented upon Neville\'s ability to do this with regularity, he\'s very good.

II could have written those words Goldfinch. Always I know that a tim of feeling low is just a passing cloud and will make the sunshine all the more enjoyable. The lockdown passing cloud will add such a zest for life with it\'s passing.

Old Laughter.
dusk arising said:

Now i\'m reassured to know i\'m still a youngster. I thought i was you know..... once.

Some great re-runs of top gear on tv (and many others) have had me in fits of laughter lately. A great release of shielding monotomy.

Maybe I Am Old.
Poetic Dan said:

The beauty in the lesson of life right there! I am not old but I look in my youngest eyes of grandparents she\'ll never know..

Many we show them the spirit we was once shown, to bring up all love that is known...

Thanks for the inspiration ;)
